Some applications downloaded and installed from the Internet can be deleted from Launchpad and others can not
To Test this assertion >> Hold the Option key while in Launchpad
If the X in Upper Left of the Application has this X >> Just click it and it should Delete
Image below
If the X does not appear >> The User ( you ) will require communicating with the Developer of this Application for Their Specific Instruction for removing Their Application from macOS
